Volvo launches new trucks worldwide - future proofing its product portfolio

"This is a bold move– we are launching new best-in-class trucks that will set a benchmark for energy efficiency and reduction of CO₂ emissions across the entire product range," says Roger Alm, President Volvo Trucks. "They have been designed to accelerate the journey towards our ambitious 2040 net-zero emission target, but they also offer higher levels of safety, productivity and uptime for our customers."

A new global product portfolio – cutting fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions

The North American market gets an all-new energy-efficient platform, cutting fuel consumption by up to 10 percent* while also enhancing the safety level significantly. The new platform will be the base for a range of new models in the coming years, utilizing the company's broad palette of electric- and renewable fuel technologies, as well as efficient combustion engines. First out is the all-new Volvo VNL model, replacing Volvo's best-selling truck on the North American market for long haul transport.

In Europe, Australia, Asia and Africa, Volvo is launching the new Volvo FH Aero – optimized for energy-efficient heavy-duty transports. The new aerodynamic Volvo FH, which lowers energy consumption and CO₂ emissions by up to five percent*, comes with a choice of propulsions systems including electric, biogas and diesel.

"The wide range of trucks we are launching will enable our customers around the world to reduce their CO₂ footprints, no matter where they are on their sustainability journey. The supply of green energy varies from market to market, and therefore as a global truck manufacturer, we need to offer our customers a range of decarbonization solutions," says Roger Alm.

*Actual fuel economy may vary depending on many factors i.e. driving speed, vehicle load, topography, and weather conditions.
